Cloud Apps

Cloud computing (or cloud applications) are hosted services (or applications) that are provided over the Internet. You take advantage of the hosted services, as a client, through the use of your web browser, or other program that is installed on your PC. An advantage of cloud computing is that you can access your cloudware apps and data from anywhere there is Internet access. Plus, it requires minimal expertise on your part to implement or learn the cloudware application.

It is apparent to me that “cloud computing” is the future– due to the number of cloud apps being developed everyday. This page is dedicated to the “cloud apps” that I have personally tested and found to be creditable on-demand services OR creditable web based applications. If you would like to suggest an application be listed, please leave a comment at the bottom of the page.
